yOumay never know the bitter ness of loving in vain."
 She drew back with her sweet face suddenly pale, and caught at the roses on her breast.
 "l do not understand" she be. gun. But Leslie had risen and a flush was upon his features.
 'I did not intend to make con- fession." he said almost coldly. Forget my hasty words"
 ''l have not realized them yet,' answered Marian, softly. Why should you go away for my sake!"
 One swift glance at her upturn. ed face, aud Leslie's heart was fill. ed with hope again.
 Do you not know 1 have loved you!' he said with passionate ut. terance. 'I have loved you from the moment first saw you"
 Marian's lips guivered, and the color fickered in her cheeks.
 'I can scarcely realize it.' she said, tremulously. "I--I believed you loved Cecile De Fere. You look surprised, but-dO not blame hlm-Albert showed me your let ter in which you wrote you had met her, and were conquered by her beauty and wonderful voice. Then you sought her at Long Branch
 "Because 1 believed her to be the woman l loved-yoa, Marian it was of you wrote. Do you not understand! Then l knew it was not Cecile De Fere l loved, but her substitute. My darlng!'
 He extended his arms, and as she shyly yielded to his embrace, he bent his head and gave her d lovers long tender kiss. The song bird was his at last.

C. E. Mitchell.


 Ata mass meeting of the white citizens of Lafayette county, this state, held the 18th, the following characteristic preamble and reso- I.lutions were adopted concerning Judge c. E. Mitchell: Whereas On the 9th day of August, 1887. il pleased his honor, C. E. Mithell Judge of the Ninth judicial district presiding over the circuit court ot Lafayette county, to decide a case in strictly partisan manner over ruling all motions offered by de- fendant, and attempting to place one of the most important officers in the codnty, viz, circuit clerk in the possession of Y. V. Smith a nonresident and a man totally obnoxious to the intelligent and tax-paying people of this county, therefore be 1t.
 Resolved, That we denounce the partisan action of Judge Mitchell in his attempt to place in office the sad individual.
 Resolved, That we denounce V. Y. Smith as sneaking carpet-bag- gar and adventurer, who returns to our country for the sole pur. pose ofpandering to the negro, and exciting his prejudice with the views of sucing office, regardless of the interest and wishes of the good people of this county, and that he has throughout his whole career in the community been all agent of dis cord; therefore we ask the said Y. Y. Smith to leave this country forthwith and permanent- ly for the country'S good.
 Resolved. That we, representing the intelligent class of the people of Lafayette county do hereby is. sue our solemn protest against the further attemps of so-called Re publlcans arraying the negro a. galnst our interest, as well as that of his own, and we will tolerate 1t no longer
 Resolved, further, That we do not object to any man or class Ot men, no matter from what section they may come, settle down a. mOngSt us and honorably assisting to build mp our country, but va do object to to men whose pur- pose is to inhu ence the negro vote alone to rlde into office for person al interest regardless of the pup lie good.

Just a Little Snaky.

The Hon John J. Martin gives us the following which he is ready to vouch for on stack of bibles, MT. Martin says: IA short time back Mir. AdeshOld saw large snake swellOw a nest of partridge eggs on which the partridge had been sitting and was nearly ready to hatch A few days later Ml Butler came across the same snake surrounded by a covey Ol of young cartridges the eggs have ing been hatched) to which hel snakeship seemed very much at tachcd. And a few days latter on Mir. Adeshold was walking through an oat-patch near by and was at tracted by snake passing through the oats with it's head elevated about even with the top of the oats which were headed out, and on ex. animation he found the snaks was picking the kernels from the oat heads and drOppings them on the ground to feed the young par. tridges, which were following d. long by her, picking them up." = Pine Bluff Commercial.

One Way.

A young editor, bright, poor and punsterious, had won the affec- tions of a rich mans daughter and they fixed a day for him to call on the father, and on that day he was promptly in the old gentleman's office.
 Good morning, sir,' he said confident, but ready to run, II have called on you on a matter off
 "We don't want any advertising today" interrupted tue old gentle, man. looking up over his glasses.
 "I am not on that business. sir. 1 came to ask you for your daugh. ter"
 "What do you want with herr"
 Marry her."
 "What fOrw
 ''For better or wOrSeW
 "What does the girl sayW
 "Sl,e says she will be my wife"
 Ugh! Ton haven't got cent in the world have youW
 ''Ies, sir. The gave assent, and if you will do the same, that will make two, and we can buy a pos tage stamp and write you for the balance of our salary"
 It was d wretched attempt, bat he got the girl.

Hasty Words.

1 Hall the actual tTOUOlc Ol llIt would be saved if people wonld re- member that silence Is golden when they are irritated, vexed, or annoyed. To feel provoked or eX- asperated at a trille, when the nerves are exhausted, is perhaps, natural to us in our imperfectly sanctified state, But why put the annoyance into the shape of speech. which, once uttered, is re- membered, which may burn like a blistering wound, or rankle like a poisoned arrow? If a child be trying, or friend caprlcions, or a servant unreasonable, be careful what you say. Do not speak while you feel the impulse ofanger, for you will be almost certain to say too much, to say more than your cooler judgement will approve and to speak iu a way that you will regret. Be silent until the sweet by-and.by," when you shall be calm, rested, and self-controled.
 Above all, never write letter when you are in mood of irrlta. tion. There is an anger which Is justiliable; there are resentmen,s which are righteous. IL Is some. times a duty to express indigna- ton. But if you consider the mat ter, the occasions for putting such feelings on record are comparative ly few They come once life. time perhaps, and to many fortunate belngs they never come at all, Upon the whole, people our friends and neighbors, and the community of which we form n part--are trying to do the best they can and in health, life wears bright aud sunny aspect.
 Much of the friction winch makes the machinery move rough and dis, cordant, is caused by things too petty to be noticed, if we were in our normal condition. The nasty word spoken in petulancc may be explained, forgiven and iorgotton. But the letter written in an ebnlli. ton of wounded feeling is fact tangible, not to be cOndoned. - There it lies, with certain perma- nencc about it. Iou have sent il to friend, who needing it a halt dozen times, will each time find il more cruel and incisive than be. fore. Letters once written and sent away can not be recalled. Ton can not be sure that your friend tor en. emy) will burn them. Hidden in bureau drawers or in compart- ments of desks, ,.folded up ill port folios, locked in boxes, they will it may be, flash up again in sudden feud, and fire months after you have ceased to think of the folly which melted them. OF the other folly which penued them. Never write all angry letter when you are angry.
 All heated feeling seeks the su- perlatiye as an outlet, and superla. tives are apt to be dangerous So long as we cling to the positive in speech, we are pretty safe.
 We all need to he cautioned against undue haste in speech, but mothers most of all. II Is so easy to misun lerstand d child; so easy to grieve little person who is forbidden to answer back; so easy to leave a picture of yourself in the plastic memory, which will be pho. tographed there for the remaindrr of life, and of which you would in coming days be ashamed.

and 81, 1894 for demand. The stock market
was somewhat feverish to-day in conse-
quence of the efforts of the bears which
were chiefly exerted in the forenoon, to
check the advance. This met with little or
no resistance from the bulls until late in the
day, when several stocks were given sharp
twist and the market recovered its decidedly
firm tone. London became a buyer and
purchases were stimulated by the rumors
that prominent banking house, as well as
several influential operators were acquiring
large lines of stocks. The impression that
the Baltimore & Ohio deal is close to final
settlement also induced large proportion of
the buying. Considerable pressure was
brought against Western Urion, Missouri
Pacific and New England in the early deal
lngs, and the latter stock was sluggish all day
long. The others, however, were specially
strong toward the close. The opening was
quite irregular, but the market was very nc.
tive. The dash made by the bears rendered
prices weak, though the losses amounted to
Iracuons only, and the early losses were GEN
orally recovered. A period of comparatiye

hit was given to prices, in which all the ac

j. f. Bassett, of McGregor, Iowa, was well
coined on the floor yesterday by the large
circle of acquaintances of this very popular
gentleman. For the past thirty years he has
been connected with the famous grain house
of Bassett, Hunting d. Co., with connections
through Minnesota and Dakota, but has re-
tired from business, and is now taking life
easy. He said the wheat crop In Western
Iowa was poor compared with last year, and
around McGregor there was nothing to NEIL
ton at all. When not engaged In business
Mr.. Bassett became the centre Of group of
admirers, and his wheat stories caused loud
outlaws TO ring through the hall.
